Today is Good Friday (aren't ALL Fridays good?) in my Catholic world, so I have a few general questions with regards to our Lenten practices...
- As a not-eating-meat-on-Fridays-during-Lent Catholic, and in the sense of fair play, I would like to know what do vegetarian Catholics not eat?
- Do places like Gibson's and Ruth's Chris have measurable down cycles between February and April? And think about the irony for the Catholic cattle farmers?
- Has anyone else had a similar debate with their conscience on Fridays during Lent about "What EXACTLY IS meat? Funny how mothers and wives don't buy into the rationale that McNuggets and White Castles TECHNICALLY aren't meat. It was worth a shot, though.
- I used to give up things for Lent when I was a kid. Then I gave up Catholicism for Lent so I wouldn't have to give anything up. My mother still doesn't smile at that.
Happy Easter to all and I'll be back on Monday for the beginning of the baseball season and the end of the NCAA tournament.

White castles is acceptable as it doesn't qualify as food...
ReplyDeleteLOL, maybe not meat...but what exactly is considered...sweets. If only there was a way to distort that one...
